paper thin |
|
I
was gonna get up off that bar stool |
Just
as soon as I could figure it out |
Why
I was overlooked at the car pool |
Stood
up at the dance with no twist and shout |
|
When
you're burnin' with your last desire |
And
every memory haunts you |
You
write it down in alcohol fire |
'Cause
that's the only flame that wants you |
|
CHORUS: |
When
you're paper thin |
Yeah,
read all about it |
When
you were out of luck, well, luck was doin' alright |
Now
you're paper thin |
Yeah,
they can see right through ya |
You
just cut you're little finger on the edge of the night |
|
Now
do I really have to be responsible |
For
what I did between those tavern walls |
I
was just mixing up some chemicals |
You
could've heard a pin drop, could have heard time crawl |
|
And
every once in a while |
You
could hear you're own heart pound |
Maybe
some paper doll with a pasted on smile |
Would
let you write her number down |
|
REPEAT
CHORUS |
